Get your gas appliances safety checked every year

Gas appliances that are left unchecked could be dangerous and leaking carbon monoxide

All of your gas appliances, including your gas boiler, gas cooker and gas fire should be safety checked once a year and serviced regularly according to manufacturer’s instructions. If you do not
have your gas appliances regularly serviced and safety checked by a Gas Safe registered
engineer you could be putting you and your family at risk and in possible danger of carbon monoxide
poisoning.

What is a gas safety check?

A gas safety check involves a Gas Safe registered engineer inspecting your gas appliances. They will check the appliance is working correctly and will check the following four areas:

Gas appliances are on the right setting and burning correctly with the correct operating pressure

Harmful gases are being removed from the appliance safely to the air outside

That any ventilation routes are clear and working properly

All the safety devices are working

The check will identify any defects which require remedial work. You should have a gas safety check every year. If you are a landlord this is the law.
